Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de communications mobile et procédé de communications de données permettant de réduire la charge de ressources dans un système de téléphone mobile. Le système de communications mobile comprend une passerelle de service (SGW) (40) pour transférer des données utilisateur à destination/ en provenance d'un nœud évolué B (eNodeB) (20), et une passerelle de réseau de données par paquets (PGW) (50) pour transférer des données utilisateur à destination/en provenance d'un réseau externe. La SGW (40) et la PGW (50) sont configurées de telle sorte que de petits volumes de données envoyés et reçus, de manière autonome, à partir/en provenance d'un dispositif de terminal via le eNodeB (20) sont transférés entre la SGW (40) et la PGW (50) par utilisation d'une ressource de communication pour transférer les signaux de commande plutôt que d'une ressource de communication pour transférer les données utilisateur.
